Hi we have approx 600 Dell 755's which work with our corporate image (as long
as we change BIOS settings for Sata etc) -
all our previous 755's have the 6550 Intel processor
We have just received 25 PC's on which the image fails before sysprep
process and goes into an infinite rebooting loop - it is not possible to go
into Safe Mode, we have tried adding the 755 chipset driver's into the image
and recaptured on a working 755, also tried repair of windows, and F6 and the
SATA drivers before repair.
We have identified the issue is the 8200 processor as we swapped the
processor's from working 755's, the image process fails consistently on
machines with the 8200 processor.
We are wondering if there is a windows file that is processor dependant, we
have also tried turning the dual core processor option off in BIOS, turned
off VPro. Upgraded the BIOS to A10.
Any advice would be great as we wish to avoid recreating the image, a
straight install of windows xp from CD works fine and has same Hal as our
current image.
Thanks Cat
